YETI GX

Logitech, a renowned name in the world of tech peripherals, recently made waves in the audio industry when it revealed its consolidation efforts following the acquisition of the beloved Blue microphone brand. This move left many wondering what Logitech had in store for the iconic Yeti microphone series. In this blog post, we'll take a closer look at Logitech's latest offerings, the Yeti GX and the Yeti Orb, exploring their features, aesthetics, and price points. Join us as we delve into the world of cutting-edge audio technology.

Logitech's Yeti GX emerges as the new flagship USB microphone in the Yeti lineup. Sporting a sleek jet-black aesthetic adorned with gamer-friendly LEDs, the GX is a statement piece for content creators, streamers, and gamers alike. While it takes a significant departure from the original Yeti's plug-and-play setup, Logitech assures us that it's still rooted in the iconic Yeti design.

One notable feature of the GX is its custom dynamic supercardioid capsule, which promises to capture broadcast-quality audio. With a 24-bit/96KHz recording capability, it offers slightly higher resolution than the original Yeti. However, its frequency range is somewhat more restricted, spanning from 50Hz to 18KHz. This means it won't capture the extreme lows and highs, but for most applications, it should deliver pristine audio quality.

Gamers will appreciate the analog limiter, designed to prevent loud sounds from clipping. This is especially useful during intense gaming sessions when expletives fly freely. The Yeti GX is available on Amazon and Logitech's online store.

The Yeti Orb

For those with limited desktop space or a tighter budget, Logitech introduces the Yeti Orb, the successor to the Blue Snowball. The Yeti Orb boasts a distinctive pill-shaped body with a heavy metal stand and an RGB strip at the base, adding a touch of aesthetics to your recording setup.

Despite its compact size, the Yeti Orb maintains the cardioid recording pattern and old-fashioned condenser setup of its predecessor. This makes it an ideal choice for single-user recording scenarios. At just 4.53 inches wide, it's even smaller than the Snowball, and its triangular base adds a dash of charm to your workspace. The Yeti Orb Is now Available on Amazon and the Logitech online store.

Classic Blue Yeti

If you're a fan of the classic Blue Yeti design and prefer not to tinker with Logitech's software for settings optimization, you're in luck. The classic Yeti microphone is still available on Amazon and on Logitech's store and at various electronics retailers. With its enduring popularity, it's safe to assume that this iconic microphone will continue to be in production for several more years and remain readily accessible on the secondary market.

Logitech's latest offerings, the Yeti GX and Yeti Orb, bring exciting updates to the Blue Yeti microphone series. Whether you're a content creator, streamer, or gamer, there's a microphone tailored to your needs. The Yeti GX offers premium features with a gamer's aesthetic, while the Yeti Orb provides a compact and budget-friendly option. And for those who cherish the classic Yeti, it remains a reliable choice for high-quality audio. Logitech's commitment to audio excellence ensures that there's a Yeti microphone for everyone, no matter your preferences or requirements.
